DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN GA :) the plot and some original characters are mine though

STATUS: PROOF-READ 1/3/13 some changes were made

Prologue

In the midst of her escaping from the wrath of her father, there she laid in the middle of the forest located in the countryside of Japan in the middle of the night. She doesn't know where she is and the only thing that stayed in her mind wasn't her own safety but the safety of the children she's currently carrying. Due to fatigue, she almost fainted until she saw a glimpse of hope; in her guess, she thinks that there's a house just few feet away from her. Too bad she can hardly move. She let out a scream of agony and anguish, hoping that the persons inside that little house would be kind enough to help her. But also, just a small part of her mind is thinking that maybe her father would hear her. She prayed to the gods that it won't happen for it might be the end of her children.

Finally, the help that she's been waiting for has arrived. Though not what she expected but it'll do, it's not the time to be picky. There, a copper blond haired little boy, around 3 years old, came to her aid. The boy looked at her skeptically as if mentally asking what's wrong with her. Instead of voicing out what's in her mind, she whimpered again and the boy didn't know what to do but stare at her in wide eyes. Luckily, some footsteps were heard and for a second, she thought it was her father and his minions.

"Who is she, Hiroshi?" A man in his mid-forties appeared beside the young boy named Hiroshi. She assumed he's his father because of the same golden eyes that shimmer in the moonlight. The man had light blond hair that matched his complexion.

"I don't know dad, I came once I heard a scream. I think she's pregnant. We have to help her." The boy pleaded his father for the unknown woman's safety. Hiroshi's father nodded in agreement Slowly as to not to frighten the woman, he reached out for her. Not knowing what to do, she tried to get away. But of course, with little distance between them,

"Please trust me, miss. We are here to help you." The man flashed her smile to assure her that everything's alright. Without any choice, she finally complied and reached out to him. Finally, a sense of relief flushed through her and she fainted, knowing that she's in good hands.

"Hun, who's she?" Another woman appeared in the doorway to greet her husband who got out and check who screamed, only to find a brunette in his arms. She studied the brunette in his arms. Her eyes fell on her tummy and realized a task must be done. "Oh my god. She's pregnant! And I think her water just broke." A woman in her early forties with copper red hair and amethyst eyes said to her family. "Kiyoshi! Don't just stand there! Put her in bed." Kiyoshi finally snapped out of his trance about the fact that this brunette is about to deliver. In his house at that. No wonder I feel something wet in my hands, he thought.

"Hiroshi, go get some towels. Lots of it." Hiroshi nodded and complied his mother's wishes. "Kiyoshi! Stop gawking at her! Why don't you fetch some water? For Christ's sake, this woman is about to give birth; HURRY."

"Okay, okay, Hoshiko. Stop ordering us around, will ya?" Her husband, Kiyoshi, teased her in a middle of a stressing matter.

"What? And you still have the time to joke around, this is important!" Hoshiko wanted to knock the daylights out of her husband but she knows she still needs him in delivering the woman's safety. Hoshiko neared the woman who's helplessly lying in their bed and put a wet hot towel on her forehead. Due to the wet towel, the woman snapped opens her eyes to reveal her hazel colored orbs.

"W-Who are you?" The woman stuttered and asked the person in front of her. Fear, distress and anguish are clearly written on those swollen hazel eyes of hers.

"I'm sorry for being rude. I'm Hoshiko, this is my husband, Kiyoshi and my son, Hiroshi. They found you outside when they heard a frightful scream. You're about to deliver so I suggest you trust us because I'll make sure that your baby is safe." Hoshiko informed her. She then saw the woman nodded.

"Babies. I'm Yuka, please; make sure my babies are safe." The woman known as Yuka, pleaded. She grasped Hoshiko's hand as if asking asking for assurance. Hoshiko only smiled in return and mouthed 'promise.'

Yeah. I'm just going to skip how Yuka gave birth because it's kinda out of my league and a little bit disturbing. Just imagine it the way you like it but just to inform you that Yuka gave birth in Hoshiko's small hut. Meaning: there are really no equipment that they used in Yuka's delivery. I saw it in a movie once when a woman helped another woman in delivery. It's very painful since there's no drug to help ease the pain though some people from where I came from has that practices especially to those who lives in the mountain and is very poor not to afford the hospital bills. Nevertheless, the baby will come out safely and healthy and some still covered in blood. O-Okay ! I'm gonna stop now.

After the delivery, two babies were now carried by Hoshiko while Fireworks from the near town illuminated the dark skies. New Year. Yuka was now exhausted after giving birth to her precious children but still remained conscious to see them. "Congratulations. You gave birth to a twin; A fraternal twin to be exact. A healthy baby girl and boy~ ! The boy was older by 3 minutes, by the way." Hoshiko can't help but exclaim and the fact that she's so happy that the delivery went well.

"Thank you for your help, Hoshiko-san. I really appreciate it." She smiled and reached out her hands to hold her babies for the first time. Hoshiko gladly handed her her children covered in linen cloth and smiled when she saw the gleam in Yuka's eyes. "You're gonna be, uhm, Mikio ! So Mikio, you have to protect your little sister okay?" Yuka giggled at the thought of her children happily growing up. "And you my dearest, I'm going to name you ~ Mikan ! Behave yourself, sweetie." She kissed her bundle of joys and hugged them tightly at the same time gently. She then noticed that Mikan has her birth mark at the back of her right shoulder. It's in a almost star shape while she checked her Mikio only to find none. Though her happy little time was ruined when Hiroshi entered the house, panting.

"Mum! You gotta hide Yuka-san, the guys that were after her are here in the mountain. Dad is trying his hardest to stall them. We gotta go!" Hiroshi panic-ly said to his mum. Hoshiko was about to help Yuka sit up when Yuka handed her the babies instead. She looked quizzically to Yuka and she just smiled in return.

"They're after them. Hiroshi-san, could you please take my babies and take them to somewhere safe while we divert their attention to the opposite direction on where you're going?" Yuka pleaded.

"But, Yuka-san. I can't leave you alone." Hoshiko explained to the distressed Yuka.

"This kids are my life. If they got a hold of them, I-I don't know what to do. Please, just help me spare the kids."

Hiroshi nodded and on instinct, Hoshiko gave the babies to his 3 year old son.

"Hiroshi, do what you must. You heard Yuka-san. Keep them as far away from here as possible. Head east and don't stop. I'll help your father stall them. Just, keep safe." Hoshiko kissed her son and fled to the door.

"I beg of you. Please make sure they are safe. And put this on Mikan's neck." She then handed Hiroshi her necklace with a guitar pendant. (a/n: see my profile to see Mikan and Mikio's necklace) "And this to Mikio." She searched her pocket and found what she's looking for. "Their father and I wanted those two have this but since I don't know what their gender is before, I always have the two necklaces. And who would have thought that they're twins?" Yuka smiled and faced Hiroshi. "Keep them safe." Hiroshi carried the two new born and sprinted towards town.

When Hiroshi left, a few minutes later Hoshiko slammed the door shut behind her.

"What are you planning, Yuka-san?" Hoshiko asked the brunette.

"Simple, I'll sacrifice everything for my kids' safety. I'm going to intentionally let them have a glimpse of me and that'll trigger them to follow me wherever I went. Hoshiko-san, I'll never forget what you did to me and my family but you must move, far away from here, because if not, I can't assure your safety. Here, take this. It's supposed be my pocket money to be used for my needs while I ran away but seeing that I'm on the verge of getting caught; I'll let you and your family have this. Thank you very much." Yuka handed her a piece of folded paper and immediately left the small hut limply. Hoshiko don't know what to do, instead she opened the paper only to reveal a check that has 1M yen amount. Her mouth was left hanging open; she didn't realize that the person they're helping is filthy rich. Once she recovered from the shock, she ran outside her house to see if she's still visible. Too bad she's too late.

Back at Yuka…

She finally had the attention of her father's minions, just like she wanted. She stopped abruptly when she saw her dad, hands deep in his pocket while looking at her sternly. His eyes widen a little when he saw some dried blood on Yuka's shirt and her tummy's back to normal.

"So, you finally got rid of the pest? Where is it? Would you give me the honor of sending it far away? Oh don't worry, it's still my flesh and blood so at least I'll support it." His father smirked and Yuka can't help but bewildered by what he said; especially how he referred to his grandchildren as 'it'. Bastard. She had to make sure that he won't find them, for her own happiness.

"He died. He's still premature and knowing that I'll give birth to him in the middle of the forest didn't help much. I already buried my son." This is the only way; she can only trust Hiroshi that he'll make sure they are safe. She implied that it's not a twin or else it'll cause another fit.

"Good. Now, let's go home so that we can arrange your marriage with the heir of the Nakamura. It'll be another success to the Azumi name and we'll finally surpass the Yukihira's for I, Raidon Azumi, will do everything in my power to be on top!" Reputation, that's all Raidon can talk about. Yuka flinches when she heard the name. Izumi. Forgive me.

The car zoomed to return to Tokyo. For Yuka Azumi, this is the start of her worst nightmare.

Meanwhile with Hiroshi..

He's still ran and ran until a church emerges from his sight. Being young and in the verge of breaking down, he doesn't know what to do. Please take my babies and take them to somewhere safe. Well, the church for him is somewhere safe. He assured himself that the nuns will take good care of them. Without any further ado, he left the babies outside the church's door and knocks three times. He saw a nun who obviously was shocked to see him carrying two babies. "I entrust Mikan and Mikio to you." And with that, he dashed back to his family knowing that the twin's are in good hands.

When he arrived, he saw that his parents are panicking and packed whatever they deemed useful. "Mum, Dad. What's happening?"

"We're going as far away from here as possible." Kiyoshi answered him without looking back.

"But, where? We're not rich! What can we do to survive?" Hiroshi asked. Are his parents losing their mind?

"Yuka-san gave me a million yen for us to start over." It's Hoshiko's turn to answer his son's question now.

"I know you're shock that how a woman like her can have that kind of money. But, there's only one thing that matters. She's rich! That means they have the power to destroy your future and ours as well with a flick of their finger. They're dangerous." Kiyoshi faced his son to let him see how serious he is.

"B-But.."

"It's for your own good, sweetie. One day you'll understand." Hiroshi can't argue with his parents so he nodded frailly and went to his room to pack his clothes.

After 16 years

A young brunette was now starring at the setting sun; her waist length hair flowed with grace and her hazel eyes shimmers. Beside her was none other than her twin, Mikio, who was always there ever since. They never left each other's side though they were transferred from church after church until they landed on this simple chapel in the outskirts of Tokyo. Mikio, who was staring as his sister, smiled. Mikio has a messy yet cool Ruby Red hair that complemented his gray eyes. Many may think that he dyed his hair but the truth is, it's the original color.

If you don't look closely, the both are complete opposites; physically. Though they have the same height, but Mikan is the bubbly one while Mikio is the calm and collected one. Finally realizing that it's time, Mikio talked to his sister. "Mikan. I'm leaving." Mikan didn't look surprised, instead; she looked at his big brother with a smile on her face.

"I know. I heard you talking to the nuns. Don't worry, I'll be good. You're going to look for them right?" Mikio unconsciously fiddled with his necklace that the first nun who took care of them said that it was already in their neck when they found them. Mikan saw this and also played with her necklace. "Be safe, okay? Visit me sometimes."

"I will." He kissed her little sister in the forehead and left her there.
